Jennifer J. Boutwell is the owner of Salon Sanity in Gretna, Louisiana, and a Summit consultant, trainer, and shareholder. A few years ago, the end of her third marriage and the sudden death of her sister forced Jennifer to shift her focus from her successful career to confronting trauma and abuse that began in childhood. 

Throughout the last three years, Jennifer has focused on the study of healing after abuse and trauma, drawing from her own experiences and professional journey to offer practical and emotional guidance. In her new book, I See You, A Guide to Finding Your Inner Strength, Confidence, and Voice after Trauma and Abuse, Jennifer shares her transformative journey of healing after molestation, grief, trauma, and abuse, focusing on self-love and acceptance. 

In this refreshingly honest and moving discussion, Jennifer J. Boutwell and host Blake Reed Evans discuss sensitive topics including child molestation and partner abuse. They cover:

• Self-compassion and self-alignment
• How to support friends and coworkers experiencing grief or trauma
• Breaking generational cycles of abuse and trauma
• Tools for healing and self-regulation (Not one size fits all!)
• Friendship and community in difficult times

And much more.
